I can't believe Nutcracker happened! I was so worried that it would be cancelled at the last minute. Annabelle was so excited to perform; she just loved being a mouse this year.
I was able to take a few pictures and videos during dress rehearsal. She's the mouse right in front of the tree in this picture. Then I've added arrows to point out Annabelle in the other pics. With their masks and costumes, it was really hard to tell which one she was.
Here is the video of their main dance. She is the 4th pair of mice to come out. She enters out of the fireplace on the left.
Then she comes back on a few minutes later with a stretcher to pick up the mouse that was shot.
Here is the video of the "stretcher mice".
Then she's back on the stage again to fight with the soldiers. Since she's the tallest mouse, she ends up in the back a lot. She's in the back on the far right in this last pic and video.
Here are a few pictures from backstage. A little girl who was in her 3 yr old preschool class is in her ballet class this year, and she was a mouse with her. Here's a pic of Annabelle and Larsen Gray.
More pics with all the mice.
I sewed Violet a matching costume.
Here's the professional picture they took in the studio.
Annabelle was so excited to have friends and family come watch her. Mommy attended Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but Caden and Daddy came to Friday's performance.
Our neighbor Natalie Bryan came Friday with her mom. A pic of Annabelle with Natalie.
Nana and Papa came Saturday night.
Audrey Thomason and Bailey Shannon came on Sunday afternoon.
As did Mimi and Tia.
Annabelle's teacher, Mrs. Mogk came Sunday, as well.
It was an exhausting week of rehearsals and performing. And Annabelle loved every minute of it!
